Mr Sanchez goes to Washington

After losing a Alex Smith to a gruesome leg injury on Sunday they turned to Mark Sanchez. I would say the job is comfortably in the hands of Colts McCoy. Mark has not found any starting success since his Jets days but has played under a few of the Washington coaches in the past.

Who is Gus Edwards?

Gus Edwards appeared out of nowhere this weekend in what should have been a smash start for Alex Collins. The undrafted free agent rookie tallied 17 carries for 115 yards and a score and may have just taken the job from Alex Collins. He’s likely to be a waiver wire darling this week with an incredibly favorable schedule to end the season.

Alex Smith out for season

In a gruesome injury 33 years to the day of Joe Theisman’s leg break, Alex Smith broke his Tibia and fibula and will now be done for the season. The Redskins have lost so many players to injury, it’s hard to imagine they make the playoffs now even with 6 wins already in the books.

Winston back in

Jameis Winston replaced Ryan Fitzpatrick… again… and the future of who will be the starter going forward is once again a mystery. This is really a situation to avoid most weeks at this point. The Bucs starter is putting up fantasy points, but you are always playing a scary game of wondering when they will be benched and how many points will they have when it happens.

Jackson expected to start

Lamar Jackson is expected to make his first start today. This may be the changing of the guard as Baltimore may find itself out of the playoff race soon and this is a great matchup for Jackson. Next week is another great matchup vs Oakland.

Mixon is back

Jackson returns to practice

Lamar Jackson only missed one day with his stomach bug. We will be unlikely to know who will be starting for the Ravens until close to game time. Jackson might post the most fantasy upside… but it’s no lock he’ll start. Flacco may still start even without practicing.

Green out again

AJ Green has been ruled out again for this week. John Ross is questionable and Josh Malone is already ruled out as well. It’s possible Dalton will be throwing to Tyler Boyd and Alex Erickson. Ross has practiced despite the questionable tag, so he might be an interesting dart throw.
